Time to be Open

So here I am in LA beginning my adventure in SLAM after 2367 km of driving (how ever that much is in miles(my girlfriend's car speaks Canadian)). We traveled down the I-5 through Washington and Oregon and part of California until we jumped on the highway 1 to ride along the coastline the rest of the way down.

In that long time of driving I had plenty of time to think about life. So I'm going to be open with you. Lately I have been struggling with doubt. Doubt in myself mainly. Being unsure of the decision I had made to leave behind everything yet again to spend all the money I have to go back to YWAM. It has been driving pretty insane! But some where along the road I had this feeling of peace and confidence come over me. I knew that this is the right

decision no matter what kind of opposition or barriers were there to get in my way! Whether or not I have money, or a car or a 'job' or am on the 'right' path to some people, I know deep down in the fiber of my being that I love people and I love God and I want to see the two come hand and hand and life life as an adventure. And this path I'm on is leading me right to that!
Our first assignment for SLAM is to keep a blog (thank God I already have one). So I will be more devoted to writing in here because now it is also an assignment and not just a hobby I rarely do.Today we have been learning about what passion is. I had to give an answer to what I am passionate about and honestly, being open and all, I had a hard time because of the confusion I'm going through. But in time I know I will have the answer!
Passion: a desire you are willing to suffer for
So for the 4 people that are actually following me, first off Thanks! and secondly I hope you are ready to get to know me all too well, more than you probably want to! And be ready because on this adventure I am traveling light to bring the light and its going to start by being open and passionate!
